But, do you know how to make the most of tea tree oil? Most of us think it is too complicated to use tea tree oil as the product sounds to be very expensive and not very easily available.
But these tea tree homemade hair masks will make your work a lot easier and cheaper to solve the issue of hair loss.

DIY Tea Tree Oil Shampoo

Tea tree oil shampoos are too expensive that you find in big brands and showrooms. Also, they contain a lot of chemicals which do not guarantee an appropriate solution. But this homemade tea tree oil shampoo will give you effective results after regular use.

In a bowl, combine the shampoo, tea tree oil and your choice of oil well and mix them thoroughly till the shampoo mixes well with oil.
Pour the shampoo in a bottle and shake it well.
Apply it on your hair thoroughly like normal shampoo.
Massage your hair and specially scalp for a few minutes.
Leave the shampoo on the hair for 7-10 mins so that it gets all the nourishment from tea tree oil.
Now rinse it off gently with lukewarm or cold water.
Use it like a normal shampoo regularly and you can already feel the difference.

This shampoo works best for people who are fed up of continuous hair loss and dryness of the hair.
